Happy Birthday Blog!

I always miss the actual birthday, but at least I got the month correct this go around. Yes, the little Sand Palace is now three years old! I started blogging way back in 2003 after my ex-boyfriend had dumped me and I desperately needed attention. It worked quite well for a while, but it eventually backfired (see: leadership group of former ministry discussing my blog at their meetings). So once I realized that people do read my blog and do make judgments, that maybe, just maybe I should back off a bit. So I came over here and set up a little place where I was not as easily found (though it has been over time) and do what I do. It's been a good three years. And though it occasionally drives me insane that I don't get nearly as much blog traffic as I used to, I'm happy to have the little blog that could. It's small and dispensable, but it's mine. Which is exactly what the title "Sand Palace" means. So Happy Birthday blog! Here's to another three years!

About Me

Hi. I'm Cora. I live in south Texas. I'm married to the hottest redhead around and we have the cutest child ever. He was born on April 3, 2009 and he is perfect in every way. See also: ADORABLE. I finished grad school in July 2009, but my big plans for that degree are to admire it on a shelf while I stay at home and raise my handsome little boy. I like reading and try to do it as much as possible, though I'll admit the internet steals a lot of my book joy. But reading blogs counts, right? I enjoy iPods, obese cats, Sharpies, Burt's Bee's products, and Johnny Cash. I've changed my name and those of my family and friends in order to protect the innocent, because I'm just that cool and so are secret identities.
